What is the name of your state? Illinois About a year ago I used an internal whistleblowing process that is in place within my corporation to report unethical and quite possibly illegal activity within the Illinois/Chicago office. This process is supposedly sanctioned and allows the reporting person anonymity to all but the department handling the report.
Within a month of submitting this report I began to overhear snide and slanderous remarks made to and about me in passing by the people I believed to be involved and experienced continued sabotage of projects I was working on. My manager and her manager began to make unwarranted complaints of my performance even though these same managers had promoted me, and awarded me a cash award just 6 months earlier.
The activity I reported internally seems to be related to some other activities by this company that have since been named in an indictment by the US Department of Justice. I know that I am right about this additional wrongdoing yet I am the one being punished. I was just advised that my position is being eliminated. Do I have any recourse?
